Is there anything better than a road trip? All the new sights to see, the new smells to sniff, the new trees to pee. Nope, nothing better, unless . . .
it's a road trip with a box of food and beds following every mile of the way.
We are a family of dogs traveling across the country with our mom and dad (cause dad has to drive and mom has to feed us). We'll be taking pics and videos of cool stuff we see and do.

DUCK TAPE FROM DOWN UNDER AND ACROSS THE POND

[Don't forget to check out our extra special adoptables today after the DUCK TAPE entries.]

We have been amazed by the DUCK TAPE creations you have submitted. And today's self-portraits are no exception! We hope those DUCK TAPE people are taking notice!

Today's ARTSY FARTSY DUCK TAPE creations comes from far away lands!

First up, from the Land Down Under compliments of Daisy, Bella and Kendra (DOWN UNDER DAISY) share their adorable self-portrait scuplture with us.

They tell us the secret ingredients are a toilet paper roll with popcicle sticks for legs. Genius!

And now, from all the way Across the Pond, here is George the Lad's awesome DUCK TAPE GEORGE!

We think this should maybe be the NEW Flat George.

What do you think?

Are those COOL or WHAT?! Don't they inspire you to break out the duck tape and scissors and make a DUCK TAPE SCULPTURE of yourself??? We can't even imagine how they made these without getting DUCK TAPE all stuck to their furs! Wonder if they take commissions?

You may recognize these adorable pups from their foster mom's blog - Peaceful Dog.

Fozzie the Frog - what a ham, um, frog!

Beautiful Sandy doin' the Frog

That's right, we're featuring Fozzie and Sandy today as our adorable adoptables. They're both living the good life right now with their foster mom, but she's just preparing them to go to their furever homes. We met Fozzie and Sandy when their foster mom submitted their aDORable frog pose pics for our upcoming, soon-to-be-released calendar of Pitties in frog pose. So, they're going to be famous, too!

What a happy face!

Fozzie hanging with Lamar, his foster mom's dog, who obviously already has a furever home :)

Fozzie and Sandy are being well-trained and getting lots of socializing by their awesome foster mom (and Lamar :) so they will make wonderful companions for a couple of lucky families. Could that be you??? If you, or someone you know, lives in the DC area (or VA, MD) and would be interested in learning more about Fozzie or Sandy, go to Peaceful Dog Blog to learn LOTS more about them and see more adorable pics of them. And just maybe give them a furever home!

I is sniffing the monitor with my snooter coz fur real, I can not tell wot be the in the fur real life dogs and wot be the DUCK TAPE stunt dubulls. Amazing I tell you! And I is with Pip, owie on the frog pose.

Hey Road Dogs!Wow, those are two pawesome Festival entries! I can't believe how much that first one looks like our Scottie furiends and George is totally like a twin to that creation. Wow! Bark about talent!Grr and Woof,Sarge, COP

We usually put out four or five bowls on a big turntable. They are covered with their lids but the lids have little air holes in them for scent to be released easier.

Then comes the good part. (Don't read on if you are squeemish)

Then in one bowl we place a tiny itty bit of human flesh. Sometimes we will put little bits of other things like beef or disgusting road kill bits in the other bowls.

Then My Vickie gives me a command and ask me to show her which one is human scent.

Sometimes we use a drop of blood or other times we have skin and muscle that is donated for the training by people who just had surgery, like a knee replacement, or other surgeries where they cut off skin and tissue and bone.

SO have we grossed you out yet?

Sorry. But you did ask,

We call it part of the cadaver training. And we do it when we are too lazy to go out and burry stuff or when it is cold and MyVickie doesn't want to go outside.

We have stuff burried in places all over the area. Some have been burried in the last few weeks and a few have been out there for about 3 to five years.

That way I have to use all my skills to detect them after decomposition times.

Okay...um...WOW! Those duck tape self-pawtraits are just AH-mazing! Wow. There sure are some creative doggies in Blogville!

And I just LUVS Fozzie and Sandy! Luvs, luvs, luvs 'em! I hope every single day that they find their furever and ever homes! I mean, how could they not? Who wouldn't want doggies that can "do da frog" like that?

What a creative creation Daisy and Bella made with a toilet roll, popsicle sticks and duct tape! It does look just like them! Bravo! :)And I do believe the original Flat George has some stiff competition now! ;) Way cool :D

Paws crossed for my froggie cousins Fozzie and Sandy to find thier furever homes soon! So nice that have such a great foster home until they do! :D
